Brooks Adrenaline GTS 16 - Women’s

The Basics

Runner’s World Review

You don’t fix what isn’t broken, and the Adrenaline has worked well for 15 iterations, winning multiple awards and a loyal following. Brooks focused on refining the upper this time around, changing the location of overlays to better hug around the arch and open up the toebox. “The upper is much more comfortable,” said Christopher Garges of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, who has worn multiple GTS versions.

We put each shoe through real-world usage and a battery of mechanical tests in our lab to provide you with objective — and exclusive — data. In addition to a shoe's weight, we measure sole thickness (everything that sits between your foot and the road), how well the foam cushions your stride, and the flexibility of the forefoot. All this is taken into account in our reviews of each shoe.
